Title:
VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/046381
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This vehicle control apparatus can selectively implement one of fuel cut control in which, when there is no acceleration/deceleration request to a vehicle (1) as the vehicle travels and in a state in which motive power is transmitted between an engine (2) and a drive wheel (4) by the engagement of a clutch (5), fuel injection into the engine (2) is terminated on the basis of the current vehicle speed of the vehicle (1) and operation environment information, deceleration assist control in which an upshift of an automatic transmission mechanism (6) is prohibited or a downshift is performed while fuel injection into the engine (2) is terminated, or coasting travel control implementing inertial travel in which the vehicle (1) is caused to travel by inertia by disengaging the clutch (5) such that the transmission of motive power between the engine (2) and the drive wheel (4) is terminated. Thus, a discomfort that the driver feels during the travel of the vehicle can be suppressed and fuel efficiency can be improved.
